Jackson Hole Fall

What better way to spend a weekend in September than out in the mountains with family. Although I love the changing of the seasons here in Alexandria, I recently took a trip out west that made me even more excited for fall. Earlier this month, I visited Jackson Hole, Wyoming, for my nephew Stuart's wedding to celebrate him marrying his beautiful bride, Ellie. It was a gorgeous wedding hosted outdoors overlooking Grand Teton Mountain. A beautiful background for a beautiful celebration!

If you have never been, I highly recommend a visit. Close to Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park, Jackson Hole has an abundance of ski resorts, fantastic restaurants, great people watching, and even a western downtown with fun saloons to visit. While we were out there, we spent our days in the National Parks, hiking and climbing around Grand Teton. Our family rafted down the Snake River and saw lots of wildlife, including eagles, two moose, and a baby bear whose mom was sleeping nearby. It was rejuvenating to be out in nature and explore a new part of the nation with my family. 

On our flight back, I couldn't help but think about the mountains of Jackson Hole and how they fuel my love for fall decoration and design. Now that I am back at the shop, I have a few items new to our shelves that I want to share with you. Ones I know will inspire the feeling of fall in your own homes, just as Jackson Hole did for me!

These delicate and beautiful Vietri Hibiscus Glass Amber Bud Vases are stunning reminders of the beauty of fall. The mouth-blown glass exudes elegance and brings warmth and beauty to even the simplest floral arrangement

More stunning colored glass is found in these Borrowed Blu Wine Goblets with 24k gold trim.

We have more stick candles in store this fall! These nature-inspired stick candles come in a pair, are 100 percent beeswax, and are hand-cast from sticks, twigs, and branches in North Carolina. Boxwood carries these in all colors, but they go quickly!

Finally, we have our Voluspa Baltic Amber Collection candles to inspire fall feelings. These are unique, hand-poured coconut wax blend candles in a 9 oz. embossed glass jar, presented in a decorative box. Boxwood offers them in three sizes: 9 oz. classic size, a 5.5 oz. small jar size, and a 1.8 oz. macaron small size, all presented in glass vessels topped with a matching lid. Warm up the ambiance with a sensual soirée of honeyed Amber Resin, velvety Woods, and the rich incense of smoldering Vanilla Orchid, bask in the swoon-worthy golden glow that radiates lingering warmth, or fall under Baltic Amber's spell!
